An Egyptian blend of toasted nuts and spices, dukkah is used as a seasoning for lamb stew. Pita bread is also dipped in olive oil and then in dukkah. Use dukkah as a crunchy coating for chicken and fish, or sprinkle it over salads along with a little sumac.

- 1/4 cup blanched hazelnuts
- 1/4 cup pistachio nuts
- 3/4 cup white sesame seeds
